    Well I tried for a good hour tonight with no luck. The second rotation posted here seemed easier to follow, but at best I still only got up to 28% quality even with 11 stacks of Inner Quiet. Seems you have to hit Byregot's on a Good/Excellent or you may as well Reclaim and start over. These are so frustrating. -_- I feel like giving up on crafting at this point.

    Care to share what you've been using for a rotation and/or your stats? It'd be helpful to those of us struggling.

    28% with an IQ 11? Are you using great strides and HQ mats?

    How does Reclaim work?

    If I'm to understand correctly. When triggered you are given a buff that when the synthesis fails I would then have a 90% chance to reclaim the materials used in the synthesis.

    That being said, I have now used Reclaim in the last 6 attempts and 4 out of those 6, I did not get my materials back. I use Reclaim when I have 10 Durability remaining.

    Am I doing something wrong? Am I using Reclaim incorrectly? or am I just the luckiest person at failing? My wife was suggesting that perhaps it's not actually 90% chance to reclaim, but only under certain conditions. (like maybe the % grows up to 90% depending on how much durability is remaining). I have no idea, which is why I'm asking for help here. This is seriously getting expensive.

    It was just a string of bad rng you got. As long as you use reclaim before you fail it's 90 percent to retain the materials. You will however always lose the clusters/crystals/shards.

    Unfortunately, this is accurate. The best you'll get is in the 20-30% ranges if your BB doesn't land on a excellent with great strides.


    That was with 10 stacks, GS, innovation, and good condition.

    You say accurate, but I can just as easily provide a counterexample.





    12 normal condition touches, 11 IQ stacks, normal condition BB, 58%.

    The difference between our final quaility is 700 or so points. I was only at 10 IQ stacks; didn't get as many hasty touches as I would've liked in the end
